This buffer only fills when writes fail to output plugin(s).

Collection jitter is used to jitter the collection by a random amount.
Collection jitter is used to jitter the collection by a random [interval][].
Each plugin will sleep for a random time within jitter before collecting.
This can be used to avoid many plugins querying things like sysfs at the
same time, which can have a measurable effect on the system.

Jitter the flush [interval][] by a random amount. This is primarily to avoid
large write spikes for users running a large number of telegraf instances.
ie, a jitter of 5s and interval 10s means flushes will happen every 10-15s

Collected metrics are rounded to the precision specified as an [interval][].
Precision will NOT be used for service inputs. It is up to each individual
service input to set the timestamp at the appropriate precision.
